you can't increase defense spending, extend the bush cuts, 20% on top of that, and just say, no, it's going to be ok, we'll grow our way into it. that does raise a fair amount of scrutiny. >> sure. i think that's legitimate. first of all, romney has said to the degree they can't get the loopholes closed in congress, he'll reduce the tax credit. that he'll stick to the principle that it will pay for itself. there's a general argument over whether you should count economic growth. simpson and bowles don't count economic growth. two harvard experts said higher growth. third, romney has an energy plan which expanding american oil and gas. the royalties alone are worth $750 billion a year to the federal government. fourth, look carefully at what romney said, that the true supply sides don't necessarily love but it's good politics. he said i will close enough deductions that wealthy americans will not get a net tax cut. now, that's a pretty clear description. >> let me just say this. standing on the stage with you in arizona, this is what mitt romney said. number one, i said today we're goi

the president's defense secretary has said the combination of the obama defense cuts with sequestration will be devastating to our military. it will further weaken our standings in the world and embolden our adversaries. >> what about benghazi? do you think that is a legitimate issue for this campaign? do you think the president should be held responsible for what happened in that terror attack? >> well of course. even the president would concede that he's accountable for everything that happens in his administration. look, what happened in libya in benghazi was a preplanned terrorist attack that was carried out on the anniversary of 9/11 that resulted in the assassination of an american ambassador and three other american civilians and what the administration told us in the aftermath of that attack against evidence to the contrary, against what the president of libya was telling the world is that this was in reaction to a youtube video. people need to be held accountable for what happened in that respect and i think it's entirely appropriate for congress to be asking the tough question
